Our four-day motorcycle tour begins in Luang Prabang. From here, we travel along some magnificent dirt and asphalt roads, heading up north toward Nong Khiaw, located along the Nam Ou River and famous for its small villages of ethnic people on a hilltop nearby the forested mountains and rice fields. We will also cross the Mekong River by ferry and visit the historic Pak Ou caves along the way. Thousands of Buddha sculptures have been added to the Pak Ou caves over the years, making it an important site for Buddhism.
We will then continue your motorcycle ride toward Ban Nanyang, where we get the chance to see the locals’ well-preserved tradition of silk weaving and silk dying from natural materials. We stay overnight in an authentic homestay hosted by a local family in Ban Payong, where we can enjoy freshly cooked Lao food and have a deeper understanding of their unique way of life. If you are not interested in the homestay experience, we will accommodate them in a nearby guesthouse in Nong Khiaw.
